Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone or company sell's CAI box's for the twin pod setup on a gtr?

Im looking to buy one but i can only find ones to suit gtst's.

Any info is appreciated.

Cheers

Brendan

i would be very interested in this as well, because i can't be bothered to make one myself and won't get pods till i get a CAI box

Unique autosports make them. speak to John and tell him ze baron sent you!

if you don't like his try Advan. they don't have them on the shelf but will custom make to suit each application.

other than that the only viable option is to either make one yourself or go for an ARC airbox.

Or use the OEM airbox!!

yeah for sure. i just haven't seen too many 32 GTRs that still have them ;)

since I've had my car it's had:

old hks pods

new hks pods

new apexi power intake pods

arc airbox

back to apexi pods

i would like to try a stock box if someone is going to pods. i reckon it would be ok with a decent filter in it and maybe open up the intake a bit.

advan have cai boxes in their showroom, not sure if they have them ready to go for sale though. can't imagine it would be a problem for them to make the thing up if you told them what filters you have.

where can i see these advan ones?

do they have a website or something?

I'm designing a box right now!

I've got an R32 GTR with HKS pods on it now, but I also have an ARC airbox, and I am in the process of making a custom box. I'm not totally happy with the ARC box, so I'm making something better!

I have an excellent welder (aircraft engineer) who is happy to make one for me, and I may be able to get him to make a few more if interest is high enough. Also, my cousin owns a metal fabrication business so....

It will be made from aluminium sheet/plate, maybe each side welded together, or maybe some bends(professional/industrial press) and some welds; I'm thinking all welds though, as al doesnt bend too well. I may also look at getting it powdercoated/anodised? black for stealth look, or color maybe.

I'm doing it for R32 GTR at the moment, but I would also look at doing them for other models if interest is good..

If anyone is interested, give me a PM, and I'll keep you posted on whats happening.

i currently making one for my 32 gtr for apexi filters if anyone is intrested in one i might make up a couple. im also going to try and make one for a 32 gtst, if anyone has a gtst and they want one made i need a test/trial car. im making the gtr one out of stainless steel but i have made one for a xr8 out of stainless angle and perspex with a neon in it and the tickford logo engraved on the perspex so i might be able to do something like that for the skylines.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
